    First I never trust my servers to Windows Update! Instead I go to
    www.microsoft.com/technet/security from this page select "Hotfix and
    Security Bulletins Search" This will bring you to a search page where
    you can select the product (Widnows 2000 Server) and Service pack level.
    The search will bring up any available hotfixes.

    Evaluating SSL VPNs' Consider NEOTERIS, chosen as leader by top analysts!
